I know this has been posted before in the past but I thought I would remind everyone as I picked up a really good freebie bag from Tesco pharmacy today.

If you ask at the pharmacy they sometimes have free sample bags to give away. I have asked a couple of times in the past (sometimes they have run out or other times they are targeted at different groups ie. the last time it was for diabetics only) Well today i got one and the freebies were quite good! Inside was

On another note - have anyone noticed how Tesco keep creping up their prices, mainly on own brand items. Have noticed this for years - but recently, Tesco crackers went from 19p to 36p, Tesco Bread Sticks from 44p to 55p ad Tesco Salted Peanuts from21p to 33p? Per centt wise his is huge, but no announcement, no promo, no reason. B4 someone says this is market forces, well we are in a recession, this how much we are actually saving going there weekly? These are 3 - there must be tonnes of sneaky price increases - and significant ones, not just the odd penny or two.

Not just tescos prices, went to buy some normal "value" equivilant pasta from Asda, as I do every week. In one week, it had jumped from 19p to 39p. They even had the cheek to put a little "low price :)" sticker next to it. How can they justify a 20p rise in one week?!
But back to the original post, have received a couple of bags in the past, will try this week! Thanks OP, heat added!

do we have to purchase anything from the tesco pharmacy to claim the goody bag?

I did purchase something today but I don't believe you have to. I've had the opinion that , if they had had them in stock before when I have asked and not bought something, they would have given it to me.

Bulls Bridge has too many auntie jee's working there - they're vile and selfish. They would never let something like this be given to the public. I was there today and was not impressed. I will try in the week, but on't hold my breath...

I went to my local tescos today (cheam park farm) and was told I had to buy something, but I bought a 50p of ibroprofen (?) and they gave me the bag! Well worth it for the nivea cream alone, although a friend did say that the enclosed "snore strips" were quite good!

I noticed the tesco value bleach was 23p and I'm sure it was 44p yesterday!

In economics, inflation is a rise in the general level of prices of goods and services in an economy over a period of time. The term "inflation" once referred to increases in the money supply (monetary inflation); however, economic debates about the relationship between money supply and price levels have led to its primary use today in describing price inflation.

Just to let you know these are still around. I got another one today from the Watford tesco. This time I had to buy something ( a packet of tesco paracetemol did the trick) and was told it was for over 50's. So I said I would have one for my mother!!!
